Sure, you could just add pool chlorine, clarifier, algaecides, and other pool maintenance chemicals. But is your algaecide neutralizing the benefit of your chlorine? Are you adding enough bromine, or too much? Is your pH safe for you and your loved ones?

Without a swimming pool water test kit you are swimming blind. Measure well, to be sure. Follow a good maintenance schedule and you are on track to create good pool water. But many things you can't control affect the final result, no matter how careful you are.

Unless you want to be limited to measurements and calculations - in other words, an educated guess or worse still, your nose and touch - you need a pool water test kit.

Fortunately, many are inexpensive and easy to use.

Some are as simple as the traditional test tube kit that provides an eyedropper, litmus paper, and a few needed chemicals. Those can do a good job of measuring pH, determining chlorine concentration, and so forth. Many will allow you also to measure cyanuric acid, urine and ammonia products, and more including calcium, to test water hardness.

You don't have to have a science degree to get good results or interpret them correctly, even with a simple, old-fashioned kit. But modern technology has vastly improved on the methods your grandfather employed to keep his pool clean and clear.

One slightly more advanced version will include a photometer, even with those small, test tube kits. In this device, a small light (often a laser, but there are other devices that use ultra-violet, or another source) shines through a sample.

That sample causes changes to the source's intensity, wavelength, and other characteristics. A sensor lets the device detect them, which transmits data to a small chip to analyze the desired water attributes. The display then shows pH and other measurements, in a form that's easy for an ordinary mortal to read.

Similarly, more advanced digital water test kits can entirely eliminate the need for litmus paper, vials, and chemicals. Various electronic and photometric sensors use proxies to measure all the things you want to know.

Those more advanced systems can automatically self-calibrate for temperature and other variables that might skew the results of an old-fashioned kit. Instead of measuring, for example, pH by observing the color of litmus paper dipped in a sample of your water, you just dip a little test probe into the pool. Voila! Instant, accurate readings.

An intermediate, and therefore less expensive, device might still use a strip, but let you thread it through the unit, which then reads the pH level for you accurately.

Naturally, all digital kits are waterproof, easy to hold, resistant to corrosion, and provide easy-to-read results on an LCD display. Many feature one-touch activation and automatic shutoff so you don't have to worry about the batteries draining.

Don't fly blind any more when it comes to pool maintenance. Take advantage of modern chemical and electronic technology to take control of your pool's destiny, and therefore ensure your family's health and safety. Use a pool water test kit.

Start More Plants With Cloning Kits

Anyone in the nursery profession knows that come spring, you have to be able to keep up with the demand of shoppers wanting to buy new plants. In order to produce the numbers of plants needed, one needs an efficient way to propagate plants quickly and cost effectively. Cloning kits are the perfect solution for this sort of propagation dilemma. When used as part of an aeroponics system, cloning kits work together and utilize much of the same equipment to both produce new plants and grow them on to maturity and presentation on your sales tables.

An aeroponics system allows you to grow plants without the expense of needing a growing medium. Plants are grown in the air using this very efficient growing system. Pumps are used to create a misting spray of nutrient solution that dampens the plant roots; this feeds the plants and, combined with the large amount of oxygen the roots are exposed to, causes the plants to reach maturity very quickly. An aeroponic cloning system uses the same apparatus as an aeroponics system, with one exception. Cuttings are suspended in the air in an aeroponic cloning system, and instead of a nutrient mist, a rooting hormone is sprayed over the cut end of the plant material. Using an aeroponic cloning system results in those cuttings emitting roots in only five to ten days. After roots are formed, the plants can be grown on in an aeroponics system, hydroponics system or other gardening system that uses soil as a growing medium. Plant cloning kits such as these aeroponic models utilize several pieces of equipment.

The pump where the mist originates is a very important component, as is the cloning tray that holds the cuttings at the proper height in the air. A clear plastic or glass covering over the plants helps to create a humid environment that is conducive to root formation in these cloning kits. Air pumps and diffusers are important for keeping the entire system properly oxygenated. You will also need rooting hormone for use in plant cloning kits. This is sold in liquid or powder form, and is typically diluted in a certain amount of water. The hormone can also be used in a powder form, but it is more difficult to get even coverage of the cutting with a powder than it is with a liquid, and thus another advantage of using cloning kits that take advantage of aeroponic misting. All sorts of plants can be replicated in cloning kits, including hardwoods and succulents, so that you can produce the popular plants that your customers want every spring.

Starting a fresh water tropical fish tank?

Ok so I have a few things already, I am just wondering how to start it?

I have a 10 gallon fish tank.
The pump, and filter.
The gravel.
The heater.
Decorations.
Air pump.

Do I need to get a water testing kit, and themomiter??

Also do I really need live plants?

Thanks in advance for any one who helps.
Thank you.

Set up the tank with the gravel and filter. Fill it with water and add enough conditioner for the tank size to remove chlorine and chloramines. You don't need live plants at all. You will need a test kit for ammonia, nitrites and nitrates.

Now you start doing a fishless cycle to get the good bacteria built up that you need to maintain water quality in your tank. http://www.aquatic-hobbyist.com/profiles/misc/fishlesscycling.html
